How to take a backup:
To take selective files:
$ dsmc selective /opt/oracle/archive/* -subdir=yes
To take incremental:
$ dsmc incremental /opt/oracle/archive/* -subdir=yes
How to archive:
$ dsmc archive /opt/oracle/archive/* -archmc=arch0365 –subdir=yes
Here archmc is the term for management class and arch0365 is a customized management class, which will keep the data in tape for 365 days. We can create customized MC in TSM Server.
How to check the active backup:
$ dsmc query backup /opt/oracle/archive/* -subdir=yes
How to check the inactive backup:
$ dsmc query backup /opt/oracle/archive/* -inactive –subdir=yes
How to check for archived data:
$ dsmc query archive /opt/oracle/archive/* -subdir=yes
This will list the files archived, which can be on different dates:
You can use from date option to get a list of archive from that particular date:
$ dsmc query archive /opt/oracle/archive/* -fromdate=11/02/06 –subdir=yes
How to check the latest backup date and time:
$ dsmc query filespace
here fs means the file space. File space is the space kept in TSM server for each file system. This command will list the backup information with last backup date.
$ root dsmc query filespace
